This detached Victorian home in Merchiston combines period character with a recently refreshed interior, making it appealing to buyers seeking a low-maintenance move. The reception room is bright and airy with high ceilings and large windows; the principal bedroom includes an en-suite and there is a second generous bedroom. The private courtyard garden and single garage provide outdoor space and off-street parking — useful for everyday convenience.
The kitchen has been sympathetically updated with herringbone flooring, skylight and contemporary fittings, and the property benefits from gas central heating, newly laid carpeting and fresh decoration throughout. The layout is linear and logical: welcoming hall, versatile reception and dining spaces, long inner corridor and practical storage including a useful cupboard by the bathroom.
Practical considerations are clear: the house is sold freehold and currently empty (before images available), with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Council Tax is Band F and running costs should be expected to reflect that. The property sits in an area noted as very deprived in the supplied data, which may affect resale and some local services despite the home’s strong individual qualities.
Overall, this is a compact, characterful detached house that offers immediate move-in condition and low short-term maintenance. It will suit buyers looking to downsize into a standalone period property with modern comforts, or those wanting a stylish base close to Edinburgh’s amenities and transport links.
